Step Up Striker

For RC novices looking for something with a bit more kick, then the new Striker MT-1 from Step Up is the electric vehicle for you. Based on the already proven and successful Stinger platform, the new Striker MT-1 brings monster truck madness to a most affordable level. With its oversize wheels and tyres and pumped up bodyshell, the Striker MT-1 immediately cuts a more aggressive chase than its buggy and truggy siblings.

It’s specially designed, high ground clearance channel chassis allows for great off road enjoyment. A modular chassis design is used so that the rear and front suspension can be simply removed from the chassis in a matter of seconds. In addition this design provides a stiff ‘box’ section for the whole car’s suspension to work from.

The gearbox utilises a three gear design comprising of a bevel gear differential, idler gear and top shaft. To complete the section an adjustable external slipper clutch helps protect the transmission from shock damage. Composite, oil filled shocks are standard as is quality RC radio system and electronic speed controller all finished off with a funky pre-printed bodyshell.

The Striker MT-1 Truggy shares a common design platform with the Stinger EB-1/EST-1 Buggy/Truggy so spare parts are kept to a minimum. Areas such as wishbones, hub carriers and steering blocks have been designed in a manner that allows left and right to interchange, so it is irrelevant which side might need replacing you will never get left with the wrong side from a spare pair of arms.

So if you are looking to get into RC on a budget, but want a vehicle that makes the competition look puny and weak, then look no further than the Striker MT-1
